Answer: <u>A. 35</u>
Step-by-step explanation: The largest prime number less than 50. The largest number less than 50 is 49, but it is not prime, because 49=7·7. The previous number is 48, but it is also composite, because 48=2·2·2·2·3. The previous number is 47, it is prime.
The smallest composite number greater than 10. The smallest number greater than 10 is 11, but it is prime. The next number is 12, it is composite, because 12=2·2·3.
The difference between the largest prime number less than 50 and the smallest composite number greater than 10 is<u> 47-12=35.</u>
The growth factor that could be used to model the population will be 1.04. Then the correct option is D.
<h3>What is an exponent?</h3>
Consider the function:
y = a (1 ± r) ˣ
Where x is the number of times this growth/decay occurs, a = initial amount, and r = fraction by which this growth/decay occurs.
If there is a plus sign, then there is exponential growth happening by r fraction or 100r %.
If there is a minus sign, then there is exponential decay happening by r fraction or 100r %.
The population is increasing by 4% per year.
Then the growth factor that could be used to model the population will be
Growth factor = (1 + 4%)
Growth factor = (1 + 0.04)
Growth factor = 1.04
The growth factor that could be used to model the population will be 1.04.
Then the correct option is D.

A primary source saw something first-hand. A secondary source only heard about it.
-5(x+8)-3x
simplified would be
-8x-40
You have to make them have their least common denominator to add or subtract, in this case 36.
Multiply 1/12 by 3, to get the denominator 36: 3/36.
Multiply 7/9 by 4, to get the denominator 36: 28/36.
Now add the numerators: 3+28=31, 31/36 is as simplified as possible so your answer is 31/36 :) I hope this helps :)
